Whole genome sequence analysis should be part of all surveillance and case detection activities in order to monitor the origin and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 lineages across Africa. We report the identification and clinical management of the first COVID-19 case from Zambia, and present the phylogenetic analyses of the patient's SARS-CoV-2 isolate, comparing it to other SARS-CoV-2 lineages reported from other African countries. Phylogenomic analysis showed that the detected SARS-CoV-2 belonged to lineage B.1.1, sharing the most common recent ancestor with viruses detected in South Africa (Figure 2) Wuhan-Hu-1, which included the D614G mutation which has been observed to correlate with increased case fatality rates.	./cache/cord-308080-1heu9vuv.txt	./txt/cord-308080-1heu9vuv.txt
